  • You can drink 200 quids worth in one night ??? Seriously ??? Is that Moet & Chandon ?

    Not really, few pints and then maybe 10-20 double whiskeys (£7-9/e) and some shots - and usually £20-50 worth of drink for after.
    Capital One - 950/1400 :eek:
    Barclay Card - 400/1250 :beer:
    Overdraft - 1500/2100 :mad:
    Personal Debt - 0/2000 :T
    nPower - 900/1115 :A
    Total - 3724/7900 -- 52% paid off!

    A few pints and 20 double whiskeys ? Either you're trolling or you need to get in contact with Alcoholics Anonymous.
  • Travel = £20-100
    Drink = £200-300

    A low class escort is like £300 and a night at the Dorchester is probably not far off that so I'd be spending a lot more if that was the case. :beer:
    Lol I like the way you know the prices of escorts though, Made me chuckle. :D


    You could sell stuff or yourself if needs be, Failing this then as said above go and borrow more money if you feel that £1400.00 is not enough, Plenty of places online to go to for a 1-12 month loan but at a high APR and if you choose this route DO NOT PAY ANY UP FRONT FEE'S

    I only drink 2-4 times a month but have a combination of a high natural tolerance/heavy (16st). 20 double whiskeys is only the equivalent of 1x70cl bottle. I drink that before going out sometimes to save money.

    Natural high tolerance won't save your liver from getting a pounding which it will do from 40 units of alcohol at one sitting.

    £400-800 a month on alcohol is still a fair bit, however many nights you spread it over.

    My OH and I had 10 days all-inclusive at a 5 star spa resort in Mexico last summer for £2 500

    I just had a weeks all inclusive in Spain for £290.

    If the OP wants to get the loan, let them get the loan and get on with it, can think of better ways to spend that kind of money but there you go.

    I dont have one penny of debt (excluding my overdraft). Just trying to get some interest free credit because I've paid out a few grand in unexpected bills in the past few months. Plus I should really start building credit (as I buy everything with cash and have 0 credit)

    That's what my doctor said, went for an ultrasound and all is OK. (She demanded I get one when I told her how much I drank).
